Dalkia Group, one of the leading providers of energy services in France and subsidiary of the EDF Group, acquires through its local holding company DK Energuia Rus, the share capital of Fenice Rus. The transaction was officially completed on September 26, 2016.
Fenice Rus is one of the pioneers of energy services in Russia, providing energy efficiency and environmental services to industrials.

The acquisition of Fenice Rus fits into Dalkia Group’s development strategy to expand its expertise and to increase the range of services relevant to sustainable development. In this regard, Fenice Rus’ proven expertise in the construction and maintenance of Waste Water Treatment Plants gives an opportunity to enlarge Dalkia Group’s competencies and develop new business. The company pays a lot of attention to sustainable development: Fenice Rus facilities reduce 201 000 tons of CO2 every year.
Through this acquisition, the Group wishes to address the Russian energy efficiency market, which displays great potential both on the industry and the heating networks segments. Dalkia has strong development capacities on these core target markets thanks to its historical expertise in France.
"The growth of energy services on the international market is one of the key goals of EDF’s « Cap 2030 » strategy. Hence we rely on EDF’s worldwide established network to create long-term growth drivers and make full use of synergies. It is the case with Fenice Rus. Its strong competencies and local market knowledge are valuable assets for Dalkia Group who will be happy to design and implement sustainable energy efficiency solutions addressing the needs of Russian customers,” highlighted Jean-Michel Mazalérat, Chairman and CEO of Dalkia.
